One idea:

Look at the default settings in the IP/TCP/UDP/ICMP headers ... Coming
from the box...

If it is all the same it _COULD_ be the same box performing NAT/PAT or
using virtual machines...
If the packets are dis-similar then it _COULD_ be different boxes...
Again note "_COULD_"

But all this is again "guessing"...

The other thing to do is to call up the contact at the customer and ask
up front or social engineering...<grin>

Subject: Multiple IP on the same server howo to idenfity

Hi, the problem is, if I am doing a penetration test from internte to
many servers, probably there should be some IP ont the same server o
network adapter like load balancer.
In a report, and to avoid false positive, should be usefull to identify
which IPs are on the same server, but how?
If I should be in the internal network I am testing I'll use arp to find
the MAC address of each IP and I should have solved, but from Internet I
cannot use arp.

 From Internet I could use the banner, but this is not sure, I could
have more then one application server on the same server with n-IP on
application server A and m-IP on the application server B getting the
banner should not be the right choise especialy with proxy.

Any idea?

Thanks

Alessandro Fiorenzi
